Looks like two very well matched cars...scratch that, drivers. but gawdam that FB looks squirrelly! especially in the beginning lol, awesome driving though, the FB looked like the faster car but not quite fast enough to beat it straight line.

Agreed. A Little "Sneaky Pete" would have worked wonders on those straights.

there is this guy with a turbo porsche, its basically carbon fiber and tubes, except for the roof. power is only like 500

when he gets bored he goes and plays with indy cars

i should say in the car we have a G sensor and a brake pressure sensor, so the graphics are actually real

Great video, I was listening to Deep Purple , Knocking at your back door.
It's not the kill but the thrill of the chase.

It looks like the FB is out cornering the Acura, but just out powering him. Nice video
